Flappy hat

started

25 September 2006

finished

30 September 2006

yarn

Debbie Bliss Aran Tweed / colour: #02 / qty: 2 x 50g ball
colour: #01 / qty: ½ x 50g ball

pattern

Adapted from Not your mama's knitting

needles

5mm circular (40cm) & DPNs + 4mm circular (40mm)

I made a few mods, or I should say... ahem, I glanced over the pattern, got the gist of top-down construction (my first, it rocks!) and sort of knitted on, making it up. Obvious changes were the two small pom-poms instead of tassels, and ribbed border instead of garter stitch.

And I think I got a little carried away with the top pom-pom, using up almost half a skein just for that, but I like the fact that it looks so obvious you couldn't just walk past and ignore it!
